The 2nd annual Scrappers Give Thanks project has a goal of assembling 2000 participant-created 4×6 pages into 100 ten page (double-sided) mini albums to be delivered to 10 children’s hospitals across the country. Submitted pages should be scrapbook-style mini artworks containing positive words, happy images, jokes etc. and may be in digital or tangible formats.

THESE are my own KIDS:
I really want to encourage all of you to participate in a very special project:
It is BACK TO CLASS in the great USA! (Are you here to hear about Joe? Keep reading!) Whether you are attending a conventional school, or homeschooling traditionally, this is just what you need to make a year's album!!!
A MEGA kit--
( nearly 500mb) AND a freebie!
This Back To Class/ Hooray 4 Homeschool kit
has TWO element packs, TWO Alphas, a shared paper pack, and a free sketch art pack.
My Creative Sunflower Girls and a few Homeschool Moms really did a fantabulous job with this kit!!

Angi shares this one- aww, I remember the day when CJ went from Homeschool/Private school to public. He was much older, but it was still a milestone! AND Now for JOE Jonas and his brothers...
YES! I taught Joe Jonas!!! We had quite a special class, as the campus had students and their children, from more than 70 nations! I LOVED it!!! I babysat his brothers, and his parents babysat our kids too! This was when my husband and I were on staff at Christ for the Nations in Dallas, Texas. You can see a video of them singing with Daddy- AND my class singing
MY DAUGTHER is on the right in a dark green velvet dress!!! JOE is in the right front row- beside the Korean girl. I remember that day that brother Kevin was hurt and Joseph didn't show up for class. That is where this song comes from.
By the way, Joe was really kinda quiet back then. We had learning centers in our classroom; his favorite was the Drama center! Life is full of surprises and you may impact someone with either your good will or ill- it is up to you! And they in turn may pass it on. Then later you may learn of them and make scrapbook pages about your time with them!!
